    Red face Greenskin Chariots Attack!

    I've always wanted to try a chariot themed list and I finally got my chance.

    After trading for a bunch of wolves and TK chariots I converted up more wolf chariots, then converted up a warboss chariot, and with my existing models I put together this 2K list:


    Warboss w/ charm shield, chariot
    Lvl 4 orc shaman w/ scroll, chariot
    Orc bsb w/ great weapon, gamblers armor, chariot

    50 night goblins w/ banner, nets
    50 night goblins w/ banner, nets
    50 night goblins w/ banner, nets

    3 wolf chariots
    3 wolf chariots
    3 wolf chariots
    Boar chariot
    Boar chariot
    Boar chariot

    To be honest the gamblers armor is there because I had 20 extra points and it seemed to match the theme


    My opponent brough a bret list that was something like:

    Killy bret lord
    Bsb w/ no rank bonus banner
    Killy paladin on pegasus
    Lvl 2 damsel w/ mirror

    12 KotR w/ FC
    12 KotR w/ FC

    3 Peg kights

    9 grail knights
    Trebucket


    Hope you enjoy it

    Dude each chariot need its own crazy banner-

    25k list I think will be pretty solid with this list as a starter.

    Re: Greenskin Chariots Attack!

    I love chariots but yours went insanely killy right there, good sir!

    Never used a full fledged chariot list yet, because I like to have some Big'unz or Black Orcs because I feel lonely without them. And a lot of Rare Units of course, I cannot leave house without some warmachines, Manglers and/or Pump Wagons. Or the Arachnarok, of course.

    I'd also think about including some cavalry to such a list, as I feel that 9 WCs aren't needed but some dead 'ard Big'unz on Boars always rock! Or a Gigantic Spider. Or both. I also like Spider Riders. Hmm, might be time to try a full cavalry list...

    Re: Greenskin Chariots Attack!

    When I designed the list I planned to be running groups. Each group would have a night goblin block, a boar chariot for immediate support, and then wolf chariots for a flank support. Getting battle for the pass killed that.

    I also really wanted to have the armor of gork on the warboss, but points didn't allow it.

    So it seems another game at 2500 may be in order...

    Re: Greenskin Chariots Attack!

    Offhand, aside from gearing out your characters, what else would you add to the list? Do you think a fanatic in each NGobbo unit to stop charges would be in order?

    I don't think I need a fanatic, but I definately need throw away units. So be it trolls or wolves, they would be added too.

    No giant or araRock to offer juicy targets for cannons instead of the squishy chariot riders-?

    A possibility, and one that would help add kills after the first push, but I doubt someone would shoot a monster over a general of lvl 4 in a chariot

    glad you finally got to test this, chariots are the bees knees! (whatever that means )

    This is one of the things to love about O&G the sheer number of sany builds.

    No pump wagons though? Might as well get another flavour in there, right?

    True true- but if the monsters get into close combat unmolested then sacrificing that lvl4 will be worth it as 2x thunder stomps + impact hits (2x,3x,4x) can smash the opponents army.

    Enjoyed watching this report.
    Very good how you manage to squeeze all the relevant info into just under 8 minutes. I actually have time to Watch stuff like that. Where-as I see a lot of reports that I would like to Watch but they're almost an hour long and that's just rarely the kind of time I have.

    I get that you were going All-Chariots here but my only reflection is that some Fanatics would have been damn nasty on those Knights.
    Although you handled them just fine anyway so, yeah, just a reflection.

    Re: Greenskin Chariots Attack!

    I love the idea of the chariot army, had some ideas myself too. more in the direction of a full goblin army. heroes in chariots racing around te battlefield. hordes of wolfriders and of course the 3x3 goblin chariot units.

    great battlereport, but i wonder if it could win against any other army...
